This is absolutely gorgeous. Whatis it supposed to be a gift bag? a box file? any chance you could post a link?got-it-spend-it wrote: »Just seen these in the M&S website:D . I think they'd make lovely sophisticated hampers- you could fill then wrap half open. Just a thought- quite a good price too- only £2.50.

Just been to Homebase for something completely unrelated and they had some lovely baskets from £1.49!!Real men never follow instructions; after all they are just the manufacturer's opinion on how to put something together.

Hi all love those M & S gift bags, think I have enough baskets now though. Was just looking through my favourites list and found a site I had saved from last year on here http://www.candigifts.co.uk/ they have some lovely things on there. Postage is quite high but you could maybe club together with someone else and split the cost. HTH
